Cant believe how cheap these cars are going for 34000$ for a 07 vert seems like a steal even with 33000miles on the clockbut go ahead and offer less that was the asking price!

If the miles don't bother you and the oil changes can be documented as having been done frequently enough, I don't think that the 34K is too bad a price..........there's LOTS of places you can look on the web to compare prices....What was their starting price and how long did you haggle to get them down to 34K??? First offer or four hours spent at the closer's desk?

The asking price is always at the upper end of what they will actually take. Start at $30K or $32K, you can always go up but you can seldom go down. Good Luck in your quest.

Good price! Remember that the automatic is a deduction from the used value...may help in your negotiating!

This seems reasonable to me-if you have all the service records.
